How to Choose and Change Scraper Blades

Match your scraper's model number to the right Hyde replacement blade, then swap it with the tool secured. Width alone does not make a blade fit.

What you need

Read the model number off the scraper. Do not pick a blade by width or outline.
Match host to blade: 10400 takes 10410 (10430 assortment). 10450 and 10460 take 10461. 10500 takes 11000. 10510 takes 11050.
10530 takes 11120 or the 11125 2-pack. 10550 takes 11150. 10600 takes 11160. 19430, 19440 and 19450 take 19451 (4") or 19452 (6").
Look for another working edge first. 2-edge, 3-edge and 4-edge blades can be turned before replacing.
Secure the tool with the edge away from your hands. Photograph the blade and holder as found.
Release the old blade using the host's own instruction. Keep the parts in order and put the blade in a rigid container.
Clean the seat, check it for burrs or cracks, then seat the new blade by hand with no force. Set every retention part as the host instructs.
Check the blade is fully seated and clear. Test on scrap with light force before returning to work.

The 10461 fits the 10450/10460 quick-release lever, which changes blades without tools.
The 4" hammer-scraper blade concentrates force at the edge. The 6" covers a wider shear.
The 11120 and 11125 blades have four edges: two rough, two smooth.
Use 2-inch blades only on tools that take 2-inch blades, not the 2-1/2-inch 10620.

If the blade is the right width but will not seat, stop. Do not bend, file, drill or hammer it.
Do not use a blade from one scraper system in another. 10400 and 10450/10460 are separate.
A cracked, bent or loose scraper body should be set aside, not re-bladed.
